Customer Reviews

It Rocks!
Bought this from Amazon.com before the UK version was released and before the exchange rate collapsed.
Have to say, it is superb. All the muddiness of the original releases has all but gone. I keep hearing "new" bits in the songs that were probably there before but lost in the transition to digital source.
If you are using through a top notch HiFi system like mine you will be more than impressed and glad of the investment. Plus you have all the albums by arguably the best band in the world all in one nicely presented box set. The reproduction artwork is fantastic and a real joy to look through. Buy it if you can before they go out of stock and start fetching a premium price.

Must have for LZ fan!
In terms of sound and presentation this boxset is flawless.
Although, I must add that it looks like Japanese release (at least the copy I got from Amazon UK had those typical Japanese stickers).

Loudness war to the extreme
The albums in this box-set feature some of the worst "loudness war" mastering I've ever had the chance to analyze. I'm not going to get into much detail on what the "loudness war" is - look it up on Google and YouTube for a few thousand examples. In simple terms, a recording is said to have been victimized by the "loudness war" when it was mastered with the audio volume so high that it exceeds the limits of the CD format specifications. Among other nasty effects like unwanted distortion and loss of dynamic range, this usually causes "clipping", that is, parts of the audio simply don't "fit" into the CD's volume range and are cut off, or in other words, lost. It doesn't matter if you play a "loudness war" CD at low or high volume - it will always sound distorted, uncomfortable to listen to, and you simply won't be hearing everything that was in the original recording because much of the audio was lost or damaged in the production of the CD. Recording companies have been cannibalizing musical masterpieces like these albums for years now, and I wonder why no class action has been filed against them yet for what is, in a nutshell, a crime against the consumers.
